season with his brother, DR. Scion Briggs,
at Ocean Grove, N. j., where he rents a

one for them. - Mrs. Emily Cook of
Bennington is staying with her sister, Mrs.
Albert Bruce, who is suffering from ill.,
health and total blindness. 80 A simple
and touching incident in the last sickness
of n little girl of four summers was told us,
amid smiles and tears, day or two since
by an acquaintance in a neighboring town.
She and a younger sister were all the grand
children this acquaintance had, and both
have recently died of diphtheria. After
she was attacked by this disease she seemed
to have premonition of her death One
day she said to her parents that she wanted
a pair of white slippers" for she was
going to Gods house and her old shoes
were not good enough to go in" The slip
pers were bought and the little feet soon
went to patter along the golden street"

of Vermont in summer. And might not the
same be said of our September?

wrought in flowers, all nicely done and the
best in the hall. Mrs, w. Sheple showed
handsome sofa-pillow silk and embroi-
derry, and Mrs. II. b. Elliot a very tasty
carriage afghan in shaded worsted done in
crochet in handsome colors, giving rich
effect Mrs. Olive Ayers of Waterbury
Center exhibited a ladies' undersuit in
tucks and knit lace. Mrs. Ayers is eighty
eight years old and the work would be
creditable for one much younger than She
Ann Norris showed a knit lace handkerchief,
which was very fine and represented lots OF
work Mrs l.. M. Eddy of Duxbury a
handsome macrame chair-set; Mrs. f. s.
Anterior silk chair-back Mrs. A. A.
Atherton silk and lace tidy. Cynthia
f.. Deuel. showed collection of small
cided talent. She is said to have never
had any instruction either in drawing
or coorng, and while her compositions
showed the unframed hand of the novice
they also indicated quite as clearly de-
cided talent. A lagoon scene in black and
white is one of her best, while an apes
head painted on the outside shell of a CO.
coanut, representing it as looking through
break in the she'll was as good thing in its
line as there was in the hall. Mrs. Silas
Coffrin had a knit bed-spread of thread,
which was very pretty and elaborate; Hat
tie Greeley had splasher and two tides in
outline, which were very pretty; Mrs. Frank
Felt showed an infants cap in thread lace,
very fine, and an embroidered skirt for an
infant. We learned that the lace infants
cap was knit by a Mrs. Clark in Berlin
from No. 100 thread, and that it has been
worn by three generations. Mrs. Bertha
Miller showed silk plush table-scarf, en-
broidered in chenille and arasene and lined
with old-gold satin, which was handsome;
also an oil painting Scene on the Hud-
SON."
VEGETABLES.
The exhibit of vegetables was rather
meager. II. +. Smith of Waterbury Center
showed nine varieties of potatoes, includ-
ing the new variety " Polaris," which was
disseminated for the first time last year. 1t
is represented as of excellent quality and a
large yielder. He also had a variety of gar
den vegetables. Jerry Flanagan of Water
bury Center showed five varieties of po-
tatoes, Allen Jewett of Middlesex four va
rieties and T. Wheeler a handsome string
of onions.
DAIRY AND HONEY
Two cheeses constituted the entire dairy
exhibit, and there were three boxes of
honey, three cans of syrup, two pals and
one tub of sugar by L. A. Persons, the best
TO our mind.
Taken as a whole, the display of fruit was
the best we have seen this year. Sidney
Wallace showed three varieties of pears
some of which We're handsome and LON
bard pums. o. w. Davis of Waterbury
Center showed forty-three varieties o.
apples, including one plate of russets of the
crop of 1886 Herschell NJ. Smith showed
| fifty-two varieties of apples. Mr.. Davis
showed a plate of Charlotten.thaler apple:
! Zone of the new Russian varieties), seven
teen apples weighing five pounds, which
grew on tree one and one-fourth inches
in diameter and has been set but two years
Mr.. Davis calls it one of the best of summer
apples. John Parker showed twenty-fiv,
varieties.

COMPARISON SoLICITED.-A wise dscrim-
ination should be exercised by all who take
medicine. The proprietors of Hoods Sar-
saparilla solicit careful comparison of this
medicine with other blood purifiers and
medicines, being confident that the peculiar
merits of Hoods Sarsaparilla are so appar-
ent that the people will unhesitatingly pre-
fer it to any other preparation. Hoods Sar-
saparilla is not a mixture of molasses and a
few inert roots and herbs but it is pecu-
liar concentrated extract of the best alter
alive and blood-purifying remedies of the
vegetable kingdom. The enormous sales of
Hoods Sarsaparilla and the wonderful
cures effected prove even more than has
been claimed for this medicine. If you are
sick this best medicine is none too good
Therefore take Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Mechanics band hall next Sunday after
noon at two o'clock. Subject, " The House
of Many Mansions"
StrafIord.
THE yearly meeting of the Vermont Free
Baptsts was held at South STAFFORD Sep
TENDER Sth, 9th, 10th and 18th. The attend
ance as well as the interest steadily in
creased from the beginning of the session to
its close. A large number of clergymen
were present. including preachers from New
Hampshire, Massachusetts,, Rhode Island,
New York and Canada. One could but OBJ
the ministry. But few of the fathers were
in attendance. The programme was well
carried out, every speaker being ready, well
prepared and ably treating the subject as
signed him. This denomination has taken
a new departure within few years, being
earnestly enlisted in missionary work at
home and abroad and awake to the i'm
portance of an educated ministry. Its col
lege Bates and academies are of high or
der, and its chief organ, the Morning star,
is an able newspaper, being outspoken but
always courteous. 80 Rev. b. p. Parker
of East Randolph occupied the pulpit of the
Congregational church last Sunday. ==
A strong religious interest is manifested at
South STAFFORD under the labors of Rev. j.
ID. Waldron, pastor of the Free Baptist
church. Saturday evening ten or more
arose for prayers. 60 Edwin Harlow has
purchased of N b. Cobb the Abraham
Brown residence and takes immediate pos
session. - Fred Kendall has removed
to Pompanoosuc to work in Patterson's
mill. - H. Lee Hatch, a clerk of the in
terstate commerce commission, is at home
on short vacation.

Hang Them First.

Our dispatches indicate remarkable re-
vulsion of public sentiment in Chicago in
the case Of the condemned anarchists.
AS the day appointed for the hanging ap-
proaches thousands of men who have all
along been clamoring for the blood of the
prisoners begin to weaken and waver The
petitions for executive clemency are filling
up with the names of signers embracing
some of the best and most prominent citi-
zens.
Doubtless these tender-hearted citizens
agree with the lawyer who said in speaking
Of the Haymarket crime: "Ihis is not ordi-
nary physical assassination"
We fail to see how this can give the plea
for clemency any weight. The fact that the
anarchists were engaged in a work of extra
ordinary physical assassination would ap-
pear to make it plain that they deserve the
seyerest penalty of the law. Their plan of
assassination was the most unmerciful i'm
aginable. Their bombs were as likely to
kill women and children as to destroy
monopolists and policemen.
1t is no time for the people of Chicago to
split hairs over the question of the ordinary
or extraordinary guilt of these fiends. After
the hanging, let the matter be discussed if
there is nothing more important on hand.
The thing to do now is to send the senti-
mentalists to the rear, and give the sheriff
and his deputies elbow room.

Jenny Lind Goldschmidt.

In the death of Madame Goldschmidt,
who is lovingly remembered in this country
as Jenny Lind, the world loses one of the
sweetest singers that ever delighted mortal
ears.
Jenny Lind was born in Stockholm in
1921. She was singer from infancy. At
the age of ten she began to win her stage
triumphs. After singing in all the capitals
OF Europe, she visited America under an en-
gagement with P. 7. Barnum and gave one
hundred and fifty concerts. Her first con-
cert in New York netted her $4,000, all Of
which she gave to local charities. The
rage TO hear her was so intense that some
Of the tickets sold for hundreds of dollars.
Her marriage to Otto Goldschmidt in
Boston turned out happily, and during the
remainder Of her life she refused to sing in
public except for the benefit Of the poor.

TWO FeebIe Old Mon.

In England people are asking the ques-
ton: After Gladstone dies, what?
In Germany men are wondering how the
death of the Emperor William will affect
the empire.
The belief of these anxious inquiriers is
that Gladstone is the liberal party, and that
the German emperor is the empire. That
the fortunes of the two countries depend
upon the lives of these men is probably
mistaken conclusion. The idea represented
by Gladstone is full of life and vigor, and it
is growing. 1t means freedom, and when
its great apostle dies is reasonable to ex-
pect that other strong men will spring up to
take his place and battle for popular
cause. With the Emperor William the case
is different. He represents dead or dying
idea, the old idea of the divine right of
kings. His death would throw the empire
into the hands of the crown prince whose
feeble health makes him easily influenced by
his wife, woman of iron will and great
determination. 1t is generally believed
that the crown princess will induce her
husband to liberaliZe the government and
place the supreme power in the hands of
the people
Taking this view of it, the death of Glad
stone will not imperil the home rule cause,
but the death of William will end the pater-
nal despotsm which cramps the energies
of the German people.
There is no other view to take. The
world has long since outgrown the idea that
it cannot afford TO have its great men die.

his honesty is called in question \
he is denounced as a murderer. How
are northern men received in the soUtha
Always with courtesy; always with hospis
tally. General Sherman, who burned Ats
lanta to the ground, has revisited the scenes
Of his operations on two occasions. He was
treated with consideration and respect. He
was so enthusiastic over his reception, in@
deed, that he wrote a long letter to the edi-
tor of The CONSTITUTION, in which he paid
a well-merited tribute to the recuperative
capacity of the people whose homes he had
ordered burned. j.,
Nor is this all. When Hayes, who stole
the presidency, appeared amongst us, nd
was treated with distinguished considered

who was Hayes's right-hand man in this
stupendous steal, visited the south, there
was nobody found to BLACKBOARD him, He
was treated with decency.

county is the centre Of the purely agricul-
tural region Of Georgia. Its farmers are
prosperous to degree, and the improvement
and development of its resources during the
past twenty years have vbeen something
wonderful. The entire agricultural display
at the Piedmont exposition showed what
has been accomplished during the past
twenty years, and yet the Piedmont was
not intended to be an agricultural show, but
the farmers took possession of good part
Of it. They brought their farm products,
their horses and their cattle, and the result
was an astounding exhibit Of progress and
development.
That was a purely agricultural
fair, and pit was the most success
full in the history of the society. Hancock
has just been holding a successful horse
show, and this is definite part of our ag-
ricultural development. This week Athens
is holding a most successful agricultural
fair, and there is no sign anywhere that
the farmers are not improving their methods
and increasing their profits.

To-Morrow's Elections.

There are elections in number of states
tomorrow. Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts,
and Ohio will elect governors, state officers
and legislators; New Jersey, New York and
Virginia, will elect legislatures; New
will elect judges of their supreme
courts; New York secretary of state,
comptroller, attorney general, state engin-
eer and surveyor; New York and Pennsyl-
yania, treasurers; Nebraska, regents of the
state university; and Oregon will vote on a
prohibition amendment, and on a PROPOSE
ton to change the time of holding state
elections from June to Noaember.
In Iowa two years ago, when there was a
gubernatorial issue, the republican plurality
was only 500. The latest accounts from
that state show that there is great apathy
among the republican voters this year, and
some sanguine democrats even hope to carry
the state. Perhaps this is hoping for too
much, but there is no doubt that the repub-
hcan majority viii be very small.
In Maryland, the democrats will have a
majority as usual, but perhaps not the
usual majority. The party there is infested
with cranks who call themselves reformers,
and these cranks will vote with the republic
cans. This contingent is mainly made up
of disappointed office-seekers and their
friends, but their united opposition will not
be sufficient to defeat the regular democratic
ticket
In Ohio, the general impression is that
Foraker will be reelected. He is a man of
very small calibre, and typical Ohio repub-
lican. Moreover, the belief is general in
the rural districts of that state that if Fora
ker is reelected he will turn out the demo-
cratic president and proceed to apportion
out the federal offices in accordance with
the Ohio idea. This is very happy view,
indeed, and, in connection with the wild
alarums of Halstead, to the effect that an
other confederate war is in progress in the
south, will do much to solidify the republi-
can voters of Ohio.
As to the other states, with the exception
of New York, our readers will have to do
their own guessing. In New York, the
newspapers have been carrying on most
scurrilous campaign, but there is no reason
to believe that the democratic ticket will
be defeated

to his followers: 'We must dare, and again
dare and forever dare" he was planting
dragons teeth and only one result eeuld
have been expected. 1t is true that through
out the lurid haze Of that terrible period we
catch glimpses Of this Titan, this Satan, as
some of his admirers lovingly called him,
making tremendous efforts to shape the
bloody chaos into something like order, but
like many other rash reformers he found
that while the work of destruction was easy,
the work of reconstruction was almost I'M
possible. The trouble with Danton was
that his moderation came too late.
A moderate reformer with cranky ideas
will not do to trust. Danton's associate
Robespierre, is a case in point. Like his
colleague, he was a lawyer, but unlike him
his moderation was at the beginning OF his
career, instead of at the end. This pale
faced weakling resigned judgeship be-
cause he was too tender hearted to pro-
nounce a death sentence. He went into
politics with one special hobby, the aboli-
tion of capital punishment. Yet, few
years later, heads could not fall fast enough
to suit him, and he declared that: "There
is period III revolutions when IL is crime
for some men to live!" He threw his mod
Grafton away just when Danton was ready
to pick it up.
If Mr.. Gronlund expects to commend So
cialism to us by this tribute to Danton he
will find himself mistaken. We care moth
ing about the late moderation of Danton or
the early moderation of Robespierre, when
we know that at the pivotal turns of the
upheaval these two men infected everybody
around them with their madness. Still,
this book will do some good if it leads us to
keep an eye ON such moderate socialists as
Mr.. Henry George. Mr., Gronlund has I'M
Willingly shown us that the moderate crank
is liable at any moment to pull down the en-
tire social fabric, and run-a-muck with the
sword in one hand and the torch in the
other. 1t may be well to bear all this in
mind.
